A big welcome to my readers or as I like to call you “Piper’s Peeps” People ask me all the time about people food and giving it to their doggy’s. I found this really cool table that explains the calorie intake of people food for us doggys. It is provided by Hill’s Pet Nutrition and is based on the calories for a 5’4” person … So it is so important not to give us people food as there are hidden dangers lurking. Even if we sit there with our very sad eyes and guilt you into it you must resist To all of my doggy friends stay healthy and happy!! Until next time …

For a 9 kg dog … 1 small oatmeal cookie Would be the same as 1 hamburger or 1 whole chocolate bar for a person

Heartbroken, the 20-year-old animal lover said she will "go MIA for a bit" to mourn her pup. "Need some healing time. Thank you to everyone who has sent love my way. I need it."
